The repeat exam for the course Image Analysis and Object Recognition (IAOR) will take place on 12th of February, starting at 9 am in seminar room 2.16 (Schwanseestraße 143). Registration for this exam via the BISON portal is possible until 1st of February.

The taster day "BITE THE BYTES" of the computer science program at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar will take place again on February 2 and 6, 2024.

The defence by Falko Horn of his bachelor's degree thesis in Informatics (Informatik) on the topic "Kombination von Photogrammetrie und Laserscanning für neuronale Strahlungsfelder" will be held on January 25th, 2024, 11.30 am.

The first workshop on "Vision-based Structural Inspections in Civil Engineering" will take place at the "IEEE/CVF Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV)" in Waikoloa, Hawaii.
The core of the workshop is the “dacl challenge”, which aims to find the best models for recognizing bridge defects and bridge components by means of semantic image segmentation.

Beginning November 1, 2023, the evaluation server for the TexBiG dataset will be available on EvalAI. The TexBiG dataset focuses on historical documents from 1880 to 1930 and is characterized by a property often referred to as "repeated labels". This property enables the study of noisy annotations in the context of instance segmentation.

David Tschirschwitz will present the work on "Drawing the Same Bounding Box Twice? Coping Noisy Annotations in Object Detection with Repeated Labels" on September 20, 2023 at the DAGM German Conference for Pattern Recognition in Heidelberg, Germany.

Call for our "1st Workshop on Vision-based Structural Inspections in Civil Engineering" at the IEEE/CVF Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV) 2024, exploring approaches for analyzing and evaluating structures in civil engineering using computer vision. The workshop will focus on the "dacl challenge" to find the best models for detecting bridge defects and bridge components using semantic segmentation.

Paul Debus will present his work on "Potential-guided UAV-flight path planning for the inspection of complex structures" on September 4, 2023 at ISPRS Geospatial Week in Cairo, Egypt.

David Tschirschwitz will present the work on "Drawing the Line: A Dual Evaluation Approach for Shaping Ground Truth in Image Retrieval Using Rich Visual Embeddings of Historical Images" on August 25, 2023 at the ICDAR Workshop on Historical Document Imaging and Processing (HIP) in San José, California.
